Polycarbonate awnings are experiencing the peak of their popularity. The latter was conquered by the relatively low price per square, durability, aesthetics and ease of installation. The installation, accessible even to a novice - sounds tempting. But, ignorance of some errors can lead to leakage of the structure.
Why does a polycarbonate canopy “cry”
The leakage of the canopy is not the only consequence that may lead to non-compliance with the norms and rules of installation. Some errors promise complete destruction of the structure. We secure ourselves by learning about the "pitfalls" of polycarbonate installation:
- The initial choice of low-quality polycarbonate;
- Inaccuracies in the design calculations. Here it is necessary to be guided not only by generally established norms, but also make adjustments for the climatic features of the region;
- The case of thermal deformation is not taken into account. The sheet is strongly deformed and can tear;
- Fields are incorrectly oriented - this is the key to stagnation or leakage of water;
- Rigid sheet fastening with screws. Such a fixer leads to polycarbonate deformations;
- Use of unsuitable fasteners;
- Poorly made sealing;
- Installation of sheets with sun-protection film inwards. This will lead to aging and destruction of polycarbonate sheets under the action of the sun;
- An increase in the permissible bending angle leads to destruction of the sheet;
- Non-use of end profiled tape and end profile;
- The use of ordinary adhesive tape instead of specialized materials for trimming sheets;
- Ignoring the normalized step for fasteners - too rare fasteners lead to depressurization of the structure;
- Negligent attitude towards the installation of a polycarbonate structure.
Ignorance of the nuances of installing polycarbonate sheets or an uncontrollable thirst for savings will not lead to anything good. At best, the canopy will simply leak, at worst collapse without hope of recovery.
How to avoid mistakes when installing a polycarbonate canopy? When solving this issue, it’s not enough to review a lot of videos, re-read a bunch of articles and learn a lot of master classes. In such a case, the participation of an experienced master is necessary. If not in the main part of the installation, then at least with advice. Experience is an excellent “fuse” against various errors in the installation of structures.
